In Combination Koine Henemble DeluKea and Some nre Tidal Wave To the Latter Class Belongs the Edith Hammond Affair. Brides are "showered" now-a-days until the process has outgrown its modest appellation and closely resembles a deluge. In the case of Miss Edith Hammond it takes the form of a tidal wave, this fortunate bride-to-be having been showered the most indefatiguably of any bride that has ever distinguished local circles. The shower habit has gotten so that it includes everything from kitchen utensils to silver and cut glass and it has remained for Hammond to institute a new form of shower which is both pimple, dainty and usefnl. The trick has been done , here before but is still sufficiently new to be worthy of special comment. It takes the form of a "jelly shower." Could' anything be more delightful? Fi.ncy being supplied with samples of the very best jelly the housewives of Hammond are capable of concocting, with no "mess", no stained fingers and no ruination of an otherwise unruffled disposition? This is the enviable poosltlon in which Miss Hammond finds herself for tomorrow, Mrs. A. W. Mather. 422 Plummer avenue, will entertain at such a charming "shower" in her honor.

Fifteen Minute Service Is Assured as Soou as the Hohiuan Sevier is Completed Five Cars Instead of Three. The street ear company has taken cognizance of the fact that the service between the Con key plant and East Ciiieago is inadequate and put on an additional car today. It i3 Tiard to arrange a schedule, however, as the building of the sewei on Hohman is still progressing all the time and the cars have that much farther to go. As soon as the sewer is finished the company will adf still another car to the Hammond-East Ciiieago run and with five cars they will insure a 15 minute service. The plan of running the green cars through from 6Tird street is a great convenience to the East Chicago people who are going to the city but those who live on the north side and desire to go to Hammond find it very inconvenient to transfer at East Chicago every time they make the trip.

No Catastronhe

i Is Inevitable By MAURICE MAETERLINCK. Sociologist.

EKFIAPS it is not surprising that IXSTIXCT saves us from great dangers, habitual and immemorial; from the water, the . fire, falls, shocks, animals. It evidently has had habitation with them an ATA VIC EXPERIENCE therewith which explains it? p.gilitv. But what is marvel

ous is the ease, the promptness with which it acquaints itself with the most complex and the most unwonted inventions of our intelligence. It suffices to show at once the mechanism, the usage and the end of the most unlocked for machine, however strange and useless it mav be to our real and primitive needs, and it understands. Henceforth in time of need it will know the last secrets and the BEST MAXIPULATIOX that intelligence can devise. This is why, however novel, however recent or however formidable be the instrument, it may be affirmed that IX PRINCIPLE THERE IS NO INEVITABLE CATASTROPHE. The subconscious always, in point of fact, is at the top of all imaginable situations. Between the chops of the sea or on the mountain top, one can, one should await the decisive movement of instinct which has resources as inexhaustible as the universe or as nature. Inequalities of instinct, which pertain rather to the promptness of the appeal than to the quality of the aid, manifest themselves at all accidents. Tlace two automobilistj in two parallel dangers exactly identical, ONE WILL ESCAPE, THE OTHER BE BRUISED. In a carriage accident, of six persons three will act too intelligently, the other three will save themselves by actions that utterly are indefensible on the grounds of reason. Can the instinct be educated? This would require special study. In the interim it may be remarked that it seems probable that as we accustom ourselves to the habitual and systematic use of the material forces of nature, of all those enormous things which we term nature, WE INCREASE THE DISTAXCE that instinct has to cover in coming to our aid. This distance, inappreciable among the savages, the simple, the humble, augments with every step taken by our education, our civilization. I AM PERSUADED THAT VERE VE TO SURPRISE A PEASANT, A LABORER, IN THE SAME CATASTROPHE WITH HIS PROPRIETOR, HE WOULD HAVE TWO OR THREE CHANCES MORE OF EXTRICATING HIMSELF THEREFROM THAN THE MORE EDUCATED MAN.

make the best possible provision for the upbringing of the next generation. The children of today will be the strength and in a great degree the directing force of the nation tomorrow. Let us sec to it that they are fitted for the high duties which will fall in their hands. The education problem needs intelligence aud care in everv direction. WE NEED TO CONSIDER THE RELATIONS OF BODILY HEALTH AND CONDITION TO STUDY AND WHOLESOME DEVELOPMENT. We need to consider how far general rules and regulations intended to foster effective education may in the end CRIPPLE AXD HAMPER IT. We recognize that some code is probably necessary'. Teachers are human and are not all equally gifted, and for the least capable, intelligent tmd original teachers the existence of certain regulations may be desirable and even needful. But there are other teachers, and they are more numerous than the brains tight bound with red tape would suppose, whose real effective force is weakened and crippled by the tyrannous monotony of the tin) table. When a general is in the field you will, if you are wise, give him as free a hand as possible i. e., if "you" are possessed of average common sense. A teacher is in a sense a general in the field. He has to deal with conditions .which can hardly be anticipated by those who draw up CODES AXD REGULATIONS. We know only too painfully how often the well meant rules by which he is bound are inflicting definite and lifelong injury on the children, yet he has no option. He must fulfill the prescribed routine, WHETHER APPROPRIATE OR NOT. Any attempt at originality or at a wise variation in methods is looked upon with suspicion. The theory m vogue is sometimes hostile to health v freedom of method.
